Showbiz Scandal: The Official Announcement of My Ex and Myself-Chapter 118: So Delicious It Brings Tears to Your Eyes
After paying the price for biting into the plastic washbasin, Yu Xia surrendered the main speaker position of the live broadcast to Xie Qingci.
The product to be showcased this time was hot dog buns, something Xie Qingci begrudgingly accepted, as he couldn’t bring himself to introduce flashy coats and studded leather pants.
Yu Xia stepped aside, holding two extra buns for him, displaying them like bricks to the audience.
Xie Qingci brought the bun close to the camera, spinning it around to showcase the packaging from all angles, a full 360-degree view.
After everyone had seen the ingredient list and production date, he pulled it back and said dryly:
"Everyone can see it, right? The Happiness brand hot dog bun, sold for ten yuan each in supermarkets, but today, it’s just two yuan in our live broadcast room. Buying is earning, so please grab them eagerly."
Yu Xia looked at him in frustration: "This is too simple; this won’t ignite the viewers’ desire to buy. You need to tell everyone how delicious and fresh this bun is, how it stands out from other brands!"
Xie Qingci, taking her advice, immediately tore open the packaging, ready to perform a tasting broadcast.
"This bun of ours... delicious and fresh, includes a hot dog, it’s the perfect breakfast choice, low in calories, so even girls afraid of gaining weight need not worry. I’ll taste it for everyone now."
The bun wasn’t large; his clean and slender fingers pinched one end, bringing it to his mouth for a bite.
Yu Xia was about to ask him about the taste when she saw Xie Qingci’s face drastically change.
With a hand over his mouth, looking about to vomit, tears immediately welled up, his expression like ascending to heaven.
"What’s happening? Is it so delicious that you’re speechless with tears of joy?" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺
As she spoke, she leaned closer to check what was inside the bun, seeing a layer of green sauce between the bun and hot dog.
Probably wasabi sauce.
Wei Yaoyao and the others rushed over after witnessing, laughing uncontrollably, some mischievously urging Xie Qingci to take more bites.
"The program team is terrible, none of what they prepared is good hahahaha!"
"Xie Qingci, be brave! It’s just a mouthful of wasabi sauce, you can do it!"
"Tears are about to come down, pitiful hahahahaha hurry up and cry!"
"Why don’t you take a few more bites, maybe you’ll get used to it and it won’t feel bad anymore."
"Yu Xia, stop laughing, you’re louder than us!"
Yu Xia’s mouth curved into a schadenfreude smile, under Xie Qingci’s resentful gaze, she assumed a gratified expression and spoke to the camera:
"Did you see that, folks? Our tasting staff was so moved by the bun’s flavor that he cried. He tasted happiness, peace, and the wheat’s freshness! Isn’t this enough to prove the quality of the bun?!
Come on, let’s have our Little Xie swallow this super delicious bun and then talk specifically about what’s good!"
Xie Qingci: "..."
He looked at Yu Xia with tear-filled eyes, attempting to convey with a reproachful gaze that she’s setting up her teammate.
Sadly, she had made up her mind to focus on making the sale, ignoring his pitiful dilemma of not knowing whether to spit or swallow.
She even gave a unique explanation of his current state.
"Look, look," she pressed him closer to the camera, serving as an off-screen commentator, "these beautiful eyes are tearful, glistening, clearly as if he envisioned the farmers growing wheat after tasting the bun, these tears are moved by the laborers’ hard work!"
"And look at this hand covering the mouth, aren’t the hands beautiful? Aren’t the lips beautiful? But that’s not the point! The point is he wants to swallow but can’t bear to, wanting to savor the bun’s psychological activity!"
Xie Qingci’s eyes silently conveyed a sense of wanting to speak, yet speechless.
Once Yu Xia started talking, she couldn’t stop, even daringly took the chance to touch Xie Qingci’s face.
"Lastly, look at this furrowed brow and red face! These are reactions shocked by the bun’s magnificent taste! He probably never expected that this mere two yuan bun could be so delicious!"
"What? You don’t believe it? If you don’t believe it, why don’t you place an order and see for yourself? If it’s not tasty, you won’t pay, just return the goods in perfect condition at that time, and I guarantee a refund!"
Xie Qingci: ... I almost believed it, what kind of marketing genius is this.
Outside the broadcast area, Wei Yaoyao couldn’t hold back anymore, stood up to crazily endorse.
"Let me have two hundred first! I’ll skip meals and eat only this until the end of time! Not only will I eat, but I’ll also let my friends eat, keeping it as a family heirloom for my sons!"
Next to him, Ning Yunchao frantically waved his hands, refusing: "Not necessary, really not necessary! Your lack of survival instinct doesn’t mean I lack it!"
Chi Qiao: "Hahahahahahaha, how can you still go on with lacking survival instinct!"
Wei Yaoyao was a bit feverish, standing up to continue shouting: "Two hundred is no joke! As long as our taster finishes the one in hand, I’ll order two hundred for everyone!"
Yu Xia turned to look at Xie Qingci: "Why don’t you..."
Xie Qingci grabbed an unopened bun and threw it at Wei Yaoyao, then forced himself to swallow what was in his mouth, walking over to make him eat.
"Come, what’s the point of tasting, you need firsthand experience to know if it’s good, I’ll feed you, these two are yours, hurry up and eat, give me four yuan later!"
Wei Yaoyao was pinned in his seat, unable to flee, shouting for help. Those around laughed hysterically, stuffing a mouthful in him.
Then it became two tear-filled people.
Wei Yaoyao covered his mouth, looking at everyone, wanting to speak but holding back, clenching his fist lowering his head and raising it again, his expression pained, repeating twice, his soul ascending, conveying that the bun’s taste is indescribable through his body movements.
The bullet comments exploded with laughter.
[I knew it! The bun couldn’t possibly be so ordinary hahaha]
[Poor Qingci, unlucky guy encounters bad people!]
[Can’t deny, Xie Qingci’s teary-eyed appearance is pretty attractive hehehehehe/Flashed a perverted look.jpg]
[Feeding Drug Drug Hahahaha makes you drift! Got pinned haha, feed him another bite, let him appreciate everyone’s love]
[Clearly Wei Yaoyao has good relationships with everyone, master of social interaction with curly hair]
[Yu Xia, marketing genius! Precisely captured our points of interest, showcasing this taster brilliantly! Bun or not, that’s not the issue, mainly attracted to the taster]
[Don’t cry, save some energy, cry again later /Evil grin like withered flowers.jpg]
[Praises for money to Yu Big Xia, an enduring crying Xie Qingci, side note: no commerce, no loyalty]
[Hahahahaha!]
Yu Xia laughed uncontrollably, shaking like a blooming flower, nearly messing up her hairstyle.
Xie Qingci glanced at her helplessly, the burning sensation that traveled from his mouth to his eyes and stomach still vividly present, yet ultimately he merely suppressed the feeling and laughed wryly to himself.
Not far from the camera, He Ci nodded reassuringly.
No problem now, even the seemingly most Yu Xia-oriented Xie Qingci was ridiculed and pranked by her, clearly no special development, not like his brother is oblivious.
